Peru’s Private Investment Promotion Agency (PROINVERSIÓN), in coordination with the Ministry of Transport and Communications and airport concessionaire Aeropuertos Andinos del Perú, has commenced airport infrastructure modernisation works at Inca Manco Cápac International Airport in Juliaca, Puno, Peru, under the airport concession agreement.

The upgrade of Inca Manco Cápac International Airport in Juliaca is expected to improve air links across Puno and southern Peru, increase operational safety and enhance the passenger experience. The initiative has been driven by the Ministry of Transport and Communications and airport concessionaire Aeropuertos Andinos del Perú, with technical assistance from PROINVERSIÓN.

The work includes the complete rehabilitation of the runway, taxiways, and aircraft parking apron. This project represents an investment of USD 200.93 million and includes improvements to the internal drainage system and the construction of an external drainage system that will channel rainwater to the Coata River. The modernization also includes the optimization of the passenger terminal, with an estimated investment of USD 32.65 million, which will improve its facilities, services and customer service conditions; as well as the expansion and adaptation of the perimeter fence, with an approximate investment of USD 24.21 million, which will incorporate improvements in lighting and video surveillance to reinforce the security of the airport.

The modernisation of Juliaca Airport is being undertaken pursuant to Addendum No. 5 to the concession agreement, signed in March 2026. The amendment provides for optimisation and rehabilitation works representing more than US$470 million in investment across Peru’s Second Group of Provincial Airports. Operated by Aeropuertos Andinos del Perú SA (AAP), the group comprises airports in Juliaca, Arequipa, Ayacucho, Puerto Maldonado and Tacna.
